I made some a bunch of years ago for 06 using Red Dot and a very small tuft of Dacron floss to retain the charge. Wish I could remember the exact charge... 10 grains maybe??? Basically deprime/reprime and use in the same rifle w/o sizing.

As I recall, Govt .223 blanks get a charge of 700x, the amount I can't remember but think it is listed in an old "cartridges of the world" book.

U.S. GI:

30-06 M1909 blanks were loaded with 12 grains of SR-4990.

7.62 M82 blanks = 15 grains SR-8231.

5.56 M200 blanks = 7 grains HPC-13.

5.56 M755 64mm launcher blanks = 7 grains 700X.
